We always did a neat activity in recruitment workshops to help you come up with conversation pieces if things are running dry...we had to think of a topic to talk about using the letters of our name. So my name is Carolyn...I'd have something like this:

C - College - how did you pick NCSU as a school?
A - Activities - what activities were you involved in in HS?
R - Rush - what made you decide to rush?
O - Orientation - how did freshman orientation go?
L - Live - where do you live? dorm? where's "home" - how do you feel being so close/far away?
Y - Youth - what are some favorite memories from your youth? family vacations, etc.?
N - News - Bring up a neutral current news topic (did you watch the VMAs? etc.)

Ha, if my FB feed is any indicator, the VMA's were not neutral this year.

My favorite resource for recruitment conversation, and any other conversation with strangers: "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.
It's a quick, easy read. You can often find the books at used bookstores.
Full of extremely helpful info about how to talk to strangers, remember names, feel more comfortable in social situations etc.

Did I say it was fun and easy to read? Yes! I try to review the book every so often. I seem to have had a return attack of shyness as I've gotten older. It REALLY helps!
